The candidate’s physician, Dr. Lisa Bardack, released a statement via the campaign and said she had pneumonia.

But Bardack said in a detailed medical report of the Clinton released by her campaign today that “she is recovering well with antibiotics and rest”.
Dr Lisa Bardack added that Mrs Clinton was “recovering well with antibiotics and rest” after becoming overheated, dehydrated and feeling dizzy during a 9/11 memorial ceremony in NY on Sunday.
“The remainder of her complete physical exam was normal and she is in excellent mental condition”, Bardack added, saying Clinton “is recovering well with antibiotics”, including Levaquin, which she will have to take for a total of 10 days, according to CNN.
Dr Bardack released Mrs Clinton’s laboratory results that showed “normal” readings for cholesterol, triglycerides and other key readings.
US Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump and Democratic rival Hillary Clinton are tied among likely voters in a four-way race for the White House, a new poll shows. After Clinton complained of worsening pain in her left ear over the next few weeks, she received a drainage tube in her left ear and her symptoms improved.
The letter from Clinton’s doctor made no mention of her weight, a key part of any medical exam, nor did a similar letter released previous year.
The health scare had forced the 68-year-old former secretary of state to cancel campaign and fundraising trips to California and has fuelled concerns about her medical fitness less than two months to go for the November 8 election.

Clinton has been off the campaign trail since then, but is expected to return this week.
Despite fanning conspiracy theories about Clinton’s health, Trump provided scant information about his own.
Trump taped the episode in NY that will air on Thursday, in which he gave host Dr Mehmet Oz a summary of a physical exam conducted last week. Her blood levels have been relatively stable.
Clinton has blood pressure of 100 over 70.
Trump, too, has said he plans to release the details of a recent physical this week.

The syndicated television show will not be broadcast until Thursday and the campaign declined to immediately disclose the results. The appearance won’t air until Thursday, but a promo video shows Trump handing over two letters about medical tests he says were done last week.
